We're just going to keep doing this kind of shit till it all falls apart aren't we?
If only people would stop voting for cartoonish villains in the gop and actually vote for people who give a shit.
It is not just the GOP in the USA. Every nation has the same issue, most people only care about themselves.
My own parents have basically said they do not give a shit what happens after they die as it will not affect them.
That is the attitude of so many people in the world.
Please let it all fall apart after I am gone.
Eh. Democrats don't really care either.
I never said a party name. I said vote for people that care.
Yep. We will keep applying band-aids to the gaping chest wound because sowing up the hole in the artery has been deemed bad for the economy.
Dang we just pulled an insurance company on ourselves
It goes a little bit deeper than that.
Yeah, we would progress slower. But that's not the real issue. The real issue is competing with other nations. If the US stops using fossil fuels but China keeps using them, then the US just handicapped itself and China is going to progress faster because of it.
I'm not saying it should be this way, just that it is. And it's not just 'the economy.' It's the military. Like it or not, nations are at war even when they're not.
